Hey guys, we're going to attempt to play Overwatch 2 tonight, but there are still problems with signing into the games server. So, tonight's show may either delayed or cancelled if it takes too long. I'll let you guys know soon. Thanks. #twitchstreamers #Overwatch2

@Thurstobertay @GitGudKhed @PlayOverwatch Wow I didn’t know you play video games. That’s awesome. I was lucky to have two good sessions today of Overwatch 2. Than errors. I’m on Xbox series X and Switch. Maybe we can do OW game nights one day.

@AllxringSpider //It took me over an hour just to get into a backfill game then it took no time at all for the game to crash after I finally found where the highlights were located. I hate this. I hate this so much. If I knew this is what overwatch would be, I'd save myself the pain.

Overwatch 2 players using the excuse "noo phone verification prevents hacking in high elo" Or you know..just..make your anticheat less ****** instead of exploiting poor people. **** even league doesn't do that and that **** only has a boosting and smurfing problem.

green new deal now
(@BailyeetTermite) reported
overwatch 2 got some serious serious issues. Namely the inability to log in. Even once im logged in, nothing has merged, so there goes hundreds of hours of gameplay and unlocked cosmetics. On top of that, battlepass sucks ***, and i will never forgive the move to F2P format.

...WAIT, BLIZZARD SHUT DOWN OVERWATCH IN ORDER TO LAUNCH OVERWATCH 2 AND IMMEDIATELY OW2 WAS BEEN SLAMMED WITH DDOS ATTACKS, AND ALSO PEOPLE WITH PRE-PAID PHONES CANNOT PLAY THE GAME ANYMORE????? SO OVERWATCH 1 IS JUST GONE FOREVER AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE PERMA-LOCKED OUT???

@scannermodels Yeah you cant use a prepaid phone service to have ur account merged, basically calling a **** ton of ppl poor and i feel like deleting overwatch 1 was a horrible idea

I logged into #Overwatch2 today and I got an account merge option. And yet, still none of my Overwatch 1 items transferred. My Battle net account has been linked for years. Still queue issues. If this was just a DDoS attack, its a sophisticated one. I am concerned.

The reason why is because overwatch 2 the more I see it is just a halo infinite but a bit more drier, not even the graphics changed a lot and you have to insert a phone number which judging from day 1 ddos I wouldn’t trust them with that info

Overwatch 2's Launch maybe would not have been AS Bad :TM: If we had even the slightest communication from the devs at all. FFXIV EW struggled its first week but we had constant updates by the devs on how they were fixing things. All we got in the past 2 days was "oops DDos"

It's been 30 hrs since Overwatch tweeted they were having issues and 20 hrs since A lead guy from OW has tweeted issues. Nothing since. I guess AAA games can get away with this but it is completely unacceptable. Was supposed to be an exciting launch week and it was the opposite.

@ATIChannel @North00 It's been ridiculous. I think I got lucky because I was online and in a match during the merger rollout, so I was able to merge it all without a problem. But my friend, who is the biggest Overwatch fan and has been playing since 2016, can't even get in at all. Awful launch
